Poll results
Thank you to everyone who filled out the poll on both LJ and Dreamwidth. It's been open a couple of weeks now so I think everyone has had a chance to express their views.
The general consensus seems to be that two months is about right, although a few people would like a little longer. We tend to open sign ups in the middle of a month so we've come up with a compromise that hopefully will also make dates a little more memorable.
- sign ups will open on the 1st of August (and the first of Feb for the Spring round)
- sign ups will close on the 14th of August (14th Feb)
- assignments will be out by the 21st at the latest bar unforeseen circumstances
- stories are still due by the 31st of October (30th April).
As well as making these dates a little more memorable ::g:: this will also give you at least a week's additional writing time and gives us a week to deal with any issues with sign ups, for example putting out a plea for writers to volunteer for requests where there is no match.
So, we hope to see you in five weeks or so :). However, if this timing is not good for you, for example you're off sunning yourself somewhere, please don't hesitate to contact Aithine or me. If needs be, you can always leave your sign up information with us before you go.
